The California Air Resources Board (ARB) is starting to develop
the Scoping Plan mandated by the Global Warming Solutions Act of
2006 (AB32). We are establishing a workshop schedule and are
asking stakeholders to save the following dates: 

On November 30, 2007, ARB will hold a public workshop to explain
the Scoping Plan process and schedule, and to initiate a
discussion about the structure of the Scoping Plan such as how
commitments should be designed, cost-effectiveness
methodologies, and other basic elements of the Plan. This
workshop will be held at the South Coast Air Quality Management
District offices in Diamond Bar and will be webcast.

On December 14, 2007, ARB will hold a Sector-Based Workshop.
Staff will provide an overview of the sectors responsible for
the largest percentage of greenhouse gas emissions, and provide
an overview of the staff's current thinking about potential
emission reduction measures for the Scoping Plan. This workshop
will be held at the Cal/EPA Headquarters Building in Sacramento
and will be webcast.

In mid-January 2008, ARB will hold a Tools Workshop to discuss
the various mechanisms that are available to achieve the 2020
emission reduction targets, including direct regulations,
markets, voluntary actions, and incentives. The location for
this workshop has not yet been finalized. 

In late-March 2008, ARB plans to hold a Scenario Workshop to
explore different emission reduction strategies. The staff will
present different combinations of potential emission reduction
measures and discuss preliminary analyses of the scenarios.

In October 2008, ARB staff plans to release its proposed Scoping
Plan.

In November 2008, the ARB is scheduled to consider the Scoping
Plan.
